I have no secondary language skills - so I can't translate. :^/

"Edutainment" for younger kids. Basic life skills (reading clocks,
colors, shapes, numbers, letters, math) and basic computing skills
(using the keyboard, using the mouse, etc.)

I see DebianEdu as being a 'drop in' installation which can be given to
schools (perhaps after some personalization; e.g., burn a CDROM with
K-3 level applications, and give to teachers of younger students;
burn another CDROM with 9-12 level ("high school") apps, and give to
high school teachers and students).

Tux4Kids(.org) - Lead developer of "Tux, of Math Command" ("TuxMath")
and Lead designer and developer of "Tux Paint"
I skim the SEUL/edu mailing list.
Some of my games (not really educational :^) ) are in DebianJr.
